    Most probably just see the Israel Arab conflict as another wing of the same global war that Ukraine is involved in. to Kyiv, Israel is fighting against an amalgamation of terrorist groups and states that are all allied with the aggressor Russia, and some of them are directley aiding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine Iran.

    This is actually somewhat close to the Ukrainian public’s perception of the Israel/Palestine conflict. Well, the part of the public that follows what’s going, most people have more pressing concerns.

    Thus, when you’re being sold out and stabbed in the back every day, you have to resort to ruthless pragmatism, you can be Pro Ukraine, and Anti-Israel, but you should also recognize that the side fighting against Israel, is also fighting against Ukraine.

    I personally have a skeptical view of the Israeli government and I don’t think there is anything Ukraine can do with respect to gaining Israeli support (although I understand and even support the “PR needs” with respect to the US). I get the impression the Netanyahu government is basically a corrupt, oligarch-run ethno-supremacist movement. And the statement by Israel’s finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich:

    “No one in the world will allow us to starve 2 million people, even though it might be justified and moral in order to free the hostages.”

    Sounds very russian to me.
